It'd be like 9:50am here in the Netherlands and I still support permanent DST. The daytime is basically our employer's time anyway, I'd rather not waste any more precious daylight on that part of the day. It really sucks getting off work and it's already dark outside. Hard not to crash when it's pitch black out by 5:30 pm.
I wish they would pull out. It's fucking ridiculous that so much of Europe is apparently just ok with using a Meta product for the defacto texting platform (WhatsApp).
Yeah the internet being effectively crowded into a dozen or so sites controlled fiercely by nasty data hoarding mega corps is definitely the problem. And it really does feel like it has come to a head in the last few years. I've been on the net since the 90s and the recent shift has been really jarring and sad to see.
I really intend to ratchet it back. I've taken all the social media apps off my phone and am looking to get back to stuff like forums more than social platforms and honestly just not sitting online so much in general. The time I'm spending online is not feeling like a clear cut net positive anymore.
I am as atheist as they come and his "documentary" Religulous is one of the most cringe fucking films I have ever seen. Dude just goes around to rural towns and engages mega low IQ simple folk sorta christians in "debate" over religion and it was just sad to watch. The whole movie is basically a dude shooting fish in a barrel and then fellating himself for it. Embarrassing.
Dude used to pander to liberals until everyone realized he was full of shit so now he panders to Joe Rogan style conservatives because he wasn't getting the praise he so craves from the former group.
